  2. Diesel owners; do you regret you engine choice?

    With just the standard tow pack ($375) the Pentastar/Auto will pull 6000#, matching the diesel rating. Obviously, with 77% more peak torque, (and more than double the torque at cruising rpm) the diesel will pull stronger, quieter, and more confidently.
  3. 35s & 4.56 gears experience

    The Boyscout dad down the street traded from a half-ton to an Express 2500. No more cares about heavy brick shaped trailers.
  4. Gladiators gaining in value.

    That’s exactly what he was telling me. Yes, he may have been generalizing JLs and JTs, but yes- 4 weeks from order to dealer receipt. It’s possible that there are distribution bottlenecks that don’t affect us here, or that he was full of sh-omething, but that’s what I was told.
  5. Gladiators gaining in value.

    With used vehicle prices still sky high, I wouldn't base much on what a stealership offers you. Fun fact- they make more on used cars than new one. If you're looking to trade up, make sure you give one of the big used chains a chance to make an offer on your current vehicle. They often pay far...
  6. Why are wheels so hard to figure out?

    Seems like the TJ and JK had wide-but-stock-looking fenders available by this time (3 model years into JL). I would love a flare that mimics the Rubicon unit but is 2" wider, ideally with a lip to seasonally run a standard mud flap. I like my tires covered.
  7. Why are wheels so hard to figure out?

    To add to the confusion, COMMON tires are between 10 and 12.5” wide. Anything beyond an 11” (285mm) will technically require a wider than stock wheel. The bulk of after market wheels out there will fit tires from 285mm/11” to 315mm/12.50” wide reasonably well. The wheel offset will determine...
  8. Aftermarket LED headlights have 1" gap

    Wutt??? Every vendor (that I've seen)lists the same headlight kit for JL and JT. Even Mopar parts vendors list the same Part Number: 82215136AE for both JL and JT. So yeah- there's missing info.
  9. Sturms White Max Tow AMC Jeep inspired build thread

    Any regrets about your soft top yet? Mostly concerned about the noise.
  10. 2022 Rumors?

    At least it will. Maybe. In 2 years.
  11. Mod $$ you can see vs those you can't.

    Silly question- why put ARBs in a Rubicon?
  12. Gladiator Towing with manual transmission

    That guy’s a tool.
  13. First weekend with Sport S manual transmission and 3300 lb travel trailer

    The Taco comes with a manual in TRD Sport, TRD OffRoad, and TRD Pro. They’re comparable to an Overland, Willys, and Mojave, respectively. All have pretty much the same size tire. I think there would be zero fuel economy penalty for MT trucks to come with 4.30 gears, even 4.56 for 33” tire models.
  14. First weekend with Sport S manual transmission and 3300 lb travel trailer

    You'd likely be using higher gears on your commute, and might find yourself taking off from (all but) a stop in 2nd.
  15. First weekend with Sport S manual transmission and 3300 lb travel trailer

    I suppose actual data would be cool (and honestly, I don't know): what percentage of owners plans to replace the OE tires with a stock size, particularly among the enthusiast oriented 6spd buyers? I think Toyota spec'd the Tacoma better with their MT option. Both engines have very similar...
  16. First weekend with Sport S manual transmission and 3300 lb travel trailer

    It's nice that gearing can be sorted out pretty easily, but Jeep could ship these things correctly in the first place. 4.56 (or even 4.88) should just come on these.
  17. Bestop teaser concept: folding soft cover / shell / topper for Gladiator bed

    Probably. Solid panels will roll easier, won't scratch like windows... you can't see much out of that angle anyways.
  18. 2021 Gladiator 50% off. ? $99,000. Thoughts??

    Seems pointless with a standard Pentastar. Needs at least a blower. Better a Hemi.
  19. Wondering not Swaying issue with brand new Rubicon diesel?

    The Falken MTs are pretty good. If you still have handing problems after checking the pressure, you can take a look at your sway-bar disconnect. WITH NO CARS AROUND, and at LOW SPEED, put it in 4wd and poke the disconnect button. Try some swerving back and forth- it should be noticeably MORE...
  20. What color is next in 2021

    I’d like a red clay color.
